I just realized that the default gallery app is not installed on my phone. I can't remember if I somehow uninstalled it or if it was removed after updating my phone. My Galaxy core is on stock 4.1.2 and I've rooted it. How or where can I get the default 4.1.2 gallery app;?

Is your rom deodexed?
It's the stock rom, I've simply rooted it.

Copy both files to /system/app and set correct permissions to SecGallery2apk (see attachment), then restart phone.

In system/app the .odex file was already there. However, i tried copying both files to the /app dir and they fail to copy. I also tried to simply install the app and it also fails. I'm puzzled.

You need root explorer (assuming the device is rooted). Do not install it, but copy it to /system/app, set permissions, restart phone. Everything until restarting is done in root explorer.
Strange thing happens. I've downloaded the files to my extsdcard, I copy them to system/app and I then browse the files to make sure they're there and only the odex file is present. I'm using Root File Manager.

I think the odex file was already there, just the apk was deleted.
Actually, I don't know what's wrong. Try a different root explorer/root file manager to MOVE these two files to the system/app directory. Also before that, you have to mount the system partition as R/W, not R/O. U can do that in adb (command "adb remount") or with this app https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.speedsoftware.rootexplorer&hl=lt (I'm sure there are other ways to do that, but I prefer these two).
I'll give it a try

Use a file explorer (e.g. Root Explorer or ES). For some incomprehensible reason danalo considers Google Talk bloatware and doesn't keep it installed in his rom. It should be somewhere in the system/apps folder as a .bak file. Just rename it back to the .apk and you should be good to go.
Yep just goto /system/app with Root Explorer (or similar) and rename 'Talk.apk.bak' to 'Talk.apk'. Reboot and it should appear.
I've pulled it out of system and installed it as a user app so I don't have to reinstall every release.

root explorer will not allow me to rename it.
did you give ESFile Ex root permission in the settings menu?

Make sure u click that "mount R/W" button in the folder you're in. If you can't you're not rooted.

just take it out of the clean rom zip file you downloaded and extract it from there
Thanks! I forgot about that. So I got the apps but failed to install.

What exactly are you trying to do?
I uninstalled htcclockwidget and world clock to install nexus 4 clock, but it didn't work. Now I'm trying to reinstall those apps, but it doesn't work. I used root explorer to move the apks in the system/app folder to install.

are you installing the apks? thaat probably wont work, what you would do is take the apks and move it into system/apps using a file explorer that has root access like rootexplorer paste it back into the system/app directory with all the other system apps and set the correct permissons and reboot and you should be okay

That's exactly what i did but its not working.
Edit: rebooting didn't work but turning it off did.
accidentally deleted system UI. on rooted tranformer tf700 4.2.1 I'm missing the status bars and home key etc... I assume I need to re-install the apk. Can someone post or send it to me... I would greatly appreciate it. I have a keyboard so I have limited functions... probably enough to get it installed.
thx!

OK in the attached zip you need to extract it to your sd and then copy the 2 files SystemUI.apk and SystemUI.odex into the /system/app folder and then set the permissions as 644 or rw-r--r--
Good luck!

I tried moving files into the folder above using ES explorer and it say permission denied.... What am I doing wrong?

You need to make sure you give esfile explorer root permissions. First turn on root explorer in tools on the left and then hit the word root explorer and set everything to RW - it'll work then.

Update
I was able to get the files moved with ROM toolbox and get the permissions set but it will still not install? Any ideas?

You will need t reboot if you haven't already....
Other option is download the full rom from the ASUS website, unzip to the root of your internal sd and let that flash from stock recovery. You'll lose everything but it will get you back up.
Since we now have root for the verizon s6, is it possible to get the stock browser and smart manager?
In theory. I was wondering the same thing but I've been working all day so I haven't had time to try

Yes, just follow these instructions http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...xy-s6-apps-t3041330/post59644234#post59644234
Let me know how it turns out!
Just tried this, the app is in the drawer but when I open it just closes.

And you correctly changed the permissions in the /system/app folder?
Yes
Check your permissions. I did it and it worked for me. Remember that the folders have different permissions than the files.
Did u move it to the priv app folder or the app folder?
Confirmed that when ALL permissions are set properly it works great! The app and the folders have different permissions like the other guy said

Just the /System/App folder. Use Root Explorer to do the permission settings. Just match what other random folders/apps permissions look like in the /System/App folder.
Thanks I got it working!!!
**edit**
Got it!
I've created a tutorial here.
I copied to /system/app, changed the permissions of the SBrowser folder, the apk, the lib folder, and each of the files inside the lib folder, but then I get this when I try to install the apk. What am I doing wrong?
Edit: I must have missed the previous post. Got it working now. Thanks!
Anyone have step by step instructions on how to get smart manager working? I followed the s4 thread, but it is not working for me.
I got the FingerPrint AutoComplete working, check out my thread over at XDA Thread Link.
-not very hopeful for this-
any chance, now that people have the stock browser with root, to get it working without root?
I really don't want to root my phone just yet...

Not likely
I have a OnePlus One CM11 rooted.
I read a post here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2064859&highlight=deleted
And therefore I "played" a little bit with my phone with those things:
1) \System\priv-app\ContactsProvider.apk
2)ContactsStorage from Setting ->Apps->All->ContactsStorage
Somehow I ended up with the situation that:
1)ContacsStorage does not appear at the apps list.
2)The directory \data\data\com.android.provider.contacts have disappeared.
I want to reinstall\flash the ContactsStorage app.
I know that reinstalling the rom will fix it, but I'm trying to avoid it.
Do you know of any other way I can do it?
Extract it from your ROM zip. Copy back to it's original location with a file manager (Root Explorer), set permissions and reboot.

I don't have my rom zip (This is the rom that came installed).
But returning the original backup apk and rebooting did not do the job

Then you are doing spmething wrong. What do you use to move? Is system set to R/W? permissions set? Same folder?

The problem that the apk is vanishing after reboot is not a permission issue. Try a better file manager (in my case Root Explorer never fails). Mount system as R/W and do the rest.

The apk is NOT vanishing, it stays there.
The app of ContactsStorage is vanished from the apps list permanently.
As well as the folder in \data\data of com.android.providers.Contacts.
The option to sync google contacts is gone as well.

I don't know what the odex file is.
I did not back the odex file so I do not know if it's the original, but there is a ContactsProvider.odex in there.
